Great Value for Money
Pros:

The lighting in the room was good, it was spacious enough, the air conditioning was excellent, the hot water in the bathroom was amazing, perfect for a 1-3 day stay. Not too far from the city centre.

Cons:

The sink in the bathroom had a little water leakage at the bottom, the cleanliness of the floor could be better.

Pros:

Hotel semplice ed economico, adatto per un soggiorno breve se si cerca soprattutto un posto dove dormire senza spendere troppo. La posizione è abbastanza comoda: la metro è raggiungibile a piedi e permette di arrivare in centro senza troppe difficoltà. Il prezzo non è alto rispetto ad altre soluzioni.

Cons:

La struttura è datata e i servizi sono molto essenziali. In camera mancava il phon per asciugare i capelli, cosa scomoda per chi viaggia leggero. L’ultimo giorno mi sono ritrovato senza asciugamani/accappatoio, dettaglio poco piacevole prima del check-out. Anche la colazione è molto basica e poco curata.

Nada que destacar

Cons:

Las instalaciones son viejas y van fatal, el desayuno es muy básico, la cama incómoda, limpiaron la habitación y no me pusieron papel higiénico, la ventana no abre, la luz de seguridad no paraba de parpadear. Solo iba a dormir y salía de allí huyendo
